Thirty-Three Miniatures
Jiri Matousek
Contains a collection of mathematical applications of linear algebra, mainly in combinatorics, geometry, and algorithms. Each chapter covers a single main result with motivation and full proof, and assumes only a modest background in linear algebra. The topics include Hamming codes, the matrix-tree theorem, the Lovász bound on the Shannon capacity, and a counterexample to Borsuk's conjecture.
